Mathematical network model for bone mineral density (BMD) and bone quality assessment

Proceedings of the 2nd ACM Conference on Bioinformatics, Computational Biology and Biomedicine, 2011
The bone fractures can appear in a patient as a result of an exceeding stress level at a specific anatomic site, depending the failure on fatigue phenomena, high loads or on a low value of bone density. Indeed, independently from physiological conditions or specific pathologies such as osteoporotic ones, bone mineral density (BMD) constitutes the main ...

Bone Mineral Density (BMD): The Crucial Diagnostic Parameter

2004
The early diagnosis of osteoporosis, before occurrence of fractures, can only be made by means of bone density measurements (bone mineral density tests, BMD). These measure bone density at various skeletal sites and thereby enable a prediction of risk of later fracture. A 10% decrease in bone density doubles the fracture risk for the vertebral body and

Lower femoral neck bone mineral density (BMD) in elderly women not on statins

Women & Health, 2019
Coronary artery disease (CAD) and osteoporosis, the two most frequently occurring chronic diseases of aging populations, share many risk factors including lack of estrogen, smoking, and low physical activity. CAD and low bone mineral density (BMD) are strongly associated.

[Phosphorus intake and bone mineral density (BMD)].

Clinical calcium, 2005
Phosphorus regulates the bone formation and inhibits the bone resorption. It is still expected as one of anti-osteoporosis nutrients. The amounts of phosphorus intake with calcium are increasing from 1960 to 1995. Because phosphorus affects the regulation of calcium metabolism, the balance of these nutrients is important. Tuero suggested that more than

Sacral bone mineral density (BMD) assessment using opportunistic CT scans

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, 2016
ABSTRACTThis study seeks to establish a method for opportunistic evaluation of sacral bone mineral density. This is a retrospective review of 109 scans from 109 patients who had renal‐protocol computed tomography (CT) scans performed for any indication during a 3‐month period at a single academic institution in 2014.

Bone mineral density (BMD) in obesity effect of weight loss.

Journal of medicine, 2000
It is generally believed that bone mineral density (BMD) is increased in obese subjects, but the effect of weight loss on BMD has not been well studied. Therefore, we evaluated BMD among 11 obese women (mean age 45.5 +/- 14.2 years) before and after weight loss achieved by ingesting an 800 calorie diet for 12 weeks.

Clinical Evaluation of Bone Mineral Density (BMD) and Bone Metabolism in Hereditary Hemochromatosis (HH).

Blood, 2005
Abstract Background: Skeletal complications of HH have been reported, to include osteopenia and osteoporosis. However, systematic assessments of bone density and bone metabolism in healthy HH subjects have not been performed, nor have such results been compared prospectively with an appropriate control group.

Bone mineral density (BMD) testing : who needs it? who wants it?

2014
This paper takes a critical approach to health technology assessment. Such an approach makes central the social, economic and political contexts in which health technologies are embedded. The task of this paper is to make explicit the hidden assumptions about aging women's bodies that drive the use of BMD testing.
